The following features have been added to the SASEFRED engine:
Linux X64 (LAX) host support has been added.
The PROXY= option specifies a proxy server and port number to use if the connection times out without a proxy server.
The RTSTART= and RTEND= options support the real-time periods for FRED data. Because the default is today, it is important to support the range of first to last available (the complete real-time period), in addition to other ranges for which data were available.
You can use the URL= option to request the following useful information about categories, tags, groups, and releases:
a list of the vintage dates (release dates) for a particular series that is specified in the IDLIST= option
a list of the available series for a particular release or for a specified source, tag name, or category ID
a list of available sources for today’s date
a list of the categories available for a specified series ID
Blanks are now allowed in pathnames that are used in the options for SASEFRED.
The DEBUG=ON option logs diagnostics in the SAS log.
